Blueberry

Blueberry is a small, round deep-blue fruit with a natural dusty bloom. Its flesh is juicy and gently sweet-tart with tiny, soft seeds, and it bursts to release purple-blue juices that stain. Use fresh in pancakes, muffins, salads, and desserts, or cook into jams, compotes, and sauces; commonly sold fresh or frozen.\n\nNative to North America, blueberries were domesticated from highbush species in the early 20th century while lowbush 'wild' types remain a regional specialty. They are now cultivated widely across the United States, Canada, Europe, and South America and feature prominently in North American baking and preserves.
